A Dispatch, of which the following is a Copy, was this day received . by Earl Bathurst, his 'Majesty's Principal Secretary of State fai'Foreion Affairs, from Colonel Carro!, dated Army of the Head-quar ters, Salamanca, October .e 6, 180 g. SIR, I hate the honour to acquaint you, that on the 2lst instant, the Duke del Pargtie moved forward with his armrfrom Tatnames to •Carrascal del Obis po, and having pushed, on a column towards Ma tilla *and Jejo, (as if with an .intentien of approach ing Salamanca, by Muniguela), ' proceeded to his left by a rapid lateral movement towards, Ledesink, where we crossed the Tonnes on . the 23d. On the 24th we arrived at Amanara, and on the morning of yesterday (the 25th) reached the heights . which command Salanianca to the - Northwaid, where -the patriots had the mortification - to, learn that theme? my, having had intimation of aiur approach, evacu ated the town the preceding night, retreating pre, cipitately to Toro, taking with him -a quantity of . church plate; and other articles of plunder. . . The entrance of our army jnto this town yester elay, presented a most gratifyieg spectacle different Lrigades, successitely fofwing in the spa cious and beautiful square, proclaimed with loud and reiterated Vivas, their beloved Fernando, whilst the bands of the different corps played 'several popular and patriotic airs ; nor did the zeal of the Old es suffer them to omit the tribute of their gratitud to their sincere and firm ally ; and God save ing George and Fernando, were alternately repeated . . during the entire of the day. ' - - Amidst the universal joy la bicli pervaded our ranks, a small portion of regret was discernible, no ca ikmed by the escape of the enemy, which the soldiers had-already considered as their captirus. The advance -of our column by Matilla, induced the enemy to suppose that we should have approach ed Salatnanca by Muniguela, and consequently drew their attention to that planer, which present d them many favourable. positions, - and -from whence the passage of the Tormes is difficult. So juditions, rapid, and masked was our march by Ledonaa, that -the enemy - was :totally ignorant of our, real point of attack, until oar arrival at Attila tiara, a village about three leagues from hence 'l . :,e It is a well ascertained fad, that the first intima tion General, Marchand had of our approach from Ledesma, reached him at six o'clock on the evening of the 24th at eight o'clock biS'orders for retreat were issU'ed with the utmost secrecy to the 'Corn' inantleg of Brigades ; at ten p'clock the infantry, and at twelve the cavalry, commenced their march ; and so great was their apprehension of pursuit, that they did not halt until they reached Toro. The enemy's loss, in'killed and prisoners, at the gable of Tamarnes, exceeds twelve hundred . ; and from every information we can colleet, (rem the best 'authorities here, their wounded amounts to two thousand, of which cumber a great proportion are Officers : one General, one Colonel, several sU baltern Officers, and seventy-five privates, died of their iVotinds on'the'night of their retreat froth T - IlluwinatiOus will take.plice here this night, and . -to-morrow a solemn Te Deurn will be celebrated in thanksgiving for the signal victory gained . at Ta- A13111e6 over the enemies of liberty and religion. The victory of Tatnarnes, and our entr4nce to Sa- Jamanc4, will no doubt prove highly beneficial to our cause. This army, which wirdaily increase in numbers, now feels a degree of confidence ip its powepi hitherto unknown to it. I have the honour to be &c. WM. PARKER CAROL, Major B. S. Col. Sp.

Min R - 411 - 111 hattier, and Jon kcJi) Zorrili r, of DEsTnicTION OF A FRENCH SQUADRON IN THE MEDITERRANEAN. WE have the satisfadipn of stating, that the hopes which we entertained, and have so confident, ly expressed, of a Naval Viaory in the Mediter, ranean, are at length happily realized, At an early hour this morning the Hon. Lieut. WAlJnottays, of the Philomel, arrived at the Admiralty with Dis- patches from Lord CoLLlNco,voop. These Dispatchps state, that a squadron under the 'cornmani of Ad. min!! IiAUDIN, COMigia4 of the "fiabustri of 139, the Lion, of 74, ana the Borje, of 74 guns end), four frigates, and twenty large armed transports, pil ed from Toulon for the relief of Wirceloua.- Admiral, MARTIII, whQ had been detached by Lord COLLINGWOOD, teil it; with the 1 French squadron, on the 26th October, and We are h-aptq to say, that, with the exception of ono frigate, and one store-ship, they ban .been all destroyed. The three line-of-battle ships and one frigate were driven on shore otf Cette, where they were burnt by the enemy to prevent their falling into our hands. Two of the frigates and the armed tran.,potts, which had succeededn getting into the Bay of Rosas,, were at tacked there on the tst inst. by the busts of our squadron, and completely destroyed. Our loss on this occasion was inconceivably small, - considering the magnitude of the service, and the force of the enemy. Our whole loss amounted to fifteen men, killed, and 55 wounded. Among, the lamer, we are sorry to , say,. was Lieqt, TATE, of the Videnta;re frigate. The.whole of .the Toulon Fiee consisted. of sixteen sail of the line, and 160 transports. They sailed from Toulon, and chased off our advanced frigates, but the main body of the Fleet returned to port in about four hours, and Lord CoLLtNGwoop was proceeding to blockade them. Dispatches were last night received at the Ad- miralty froM Admiral Pußvxs, containing such de- tails as bad reached him respelling the above glion, but the importance of these dispatches have been su- perseded, by those received from Lord CALLING• WOOD. Th`e folloAing letter was this morning- sent to the LORD MAYOR Admiralty'..officv,., Nov. 29. " MY Loan, " I have great satisfaction in acquainting your Lordship that DiTait:hes have been received from Lord CoLLIN*4-....wolated he 3011 i ult. and C)th is t• stating, that a French convoy, destined for Barcelo- na, consisting of three sad of _ . the line, two large frigates, and two smaller frigates, with 20 sail of armed store-ships,-had sailed fromioulon on the 21st of Ociober, the whole of which (with the exception of one of the larger, and one of the smaller fri , gates) had been destroyed . ; the line-of-battle ships by being driven .on shore on the 25th, and the armed store-ships by an attack of the boats of the Vleet under the command of Lieutenant TAILOUR, in the Bay of Rosas on the Ist November. " I regret to add, that the loss sustained in this gallant and successful enterprize, condueled by this Officer, amounted to 15 killed and 50 wounded, f' I have the honour Co be, " My . Lord, " Yolit Lordship's most obedient humble Servant, E' The Right Hon. the Lord Mayor." " Min-GRAM" , Many, of the Foreign Papers have recently con,. tained Mysterious hints of important changes which are about to take place on the Continent. The Hamburgh Paper, which is under the direlition ‘of B .uannotE, and which may therefore in some re spas be considered as an official Journal, says, tha( BUONAPARTE means to , assn . = the title of " Em peror •of Germany." We are strongly inclined to think that he has some plan of this kind'in con. templation, and that his vassal Princes have been summoned to Fontainbleau with a view to that ob, jest. There is another plan which BUONAPARTEiS . said to ,have formed, but which does not appear quite so probable. It is Said that he means to pro, pose a match between the Princess of SA.xeriY and FERDINAND the With, and to -restore the latter to the Crown of Spain, on condition of- his ceding .to Fratace the Provinces as far as the Ebro, _ We last night received Spanish Papers to the 17th inst. extracts from which are given in our sub sequent columns, The Marquis WELLESLRY, reached town yester day forenoon. Soon after his arrival, he waited on the Earl of BATHURST at the Foreign Office, with whom his Lordship transacted business.

The Paris papers recently received have copied this report, and the Editors either not under standing or not observing th joke, by which at the end of the report, these supposed ladies turn out to he cows, have made them all women, and have thus given the report of the trial with comments, in whi c h they remark upon it as a most extraordinary ciicutn stance to occur in a civiliied country, that a man should be allowed to have three wives, and that he should have its these wives such an absolute property as' to he allowed to,sell them. n NAVAL NEWS.
